Over the last few months I come across a few really great looking chicken tortilla soups such as here and here . Given the cooler weather I though it would be the perfect time to try a hot and spicy soup. I liked the sound of using the salsa verde or green enchilada sauce in the soup. I was not able to find any tomatillos to make my own salsa verde so I went with a can. The soup turned out to be really tasty! I liked the sweetness of the corn in the otherwise spicy soup. The crunch of the tortillas was a nice contrast in texture. I garnished the soup with some sour cream and shredded cheese.

This is similar to the recipe I use. One thing I like to add is either a spoonful of honey or, if I have it, a spoonful of hot pepper jelly. I find the sweet stuff brings out the flavor of the tomatoes. It's interesting how many variations there are on tortilla soup. We tend to order it wherever we go just to get a sampling of how other people make it. I like your version because it seems relatively light and healthy. I'm not fond of the ones with cream or too much melted cheese.

this is the best tortilla soup i have made n a really long time! me and my wife made this this weekend from the food we ordered from and it was perfect with the mood of the day. We might even cook it this weekend when we watch the mighty Chargers defeat the weak Patriots! GO CHARGERS!!!

I came down with an itchy throat cold and decided to run through your archive to see what sounded like a healing remedy. This one did it. I love that it is so tasty, so many flavors from the oregano, tomatoes to the salsa verde.
